So the strategy is:

• 1: Ramping The Ur-DragonThe Ur-Dragon on the field and Snowballing dragons out. I think Cost reductions like Dragonspeaker ShamanDragonspeaker Shaman or Urzas Incubator Urza's Incubator are important for that. Especially because they are cheap. There might be better cards but those have a higher cmc. We already will have a strong lategame so I did not chose cards like the immortal sun The Immortal Sun which costs 6 mana.

• 2: Worldgorger DragonWorldgorger Dragon+ Dance of the dead Dance of the Dead Combo. There are many ways in this deck to win with this combo. More ways would be unnecessary. You can create an infinite amount of tokens, inf. damage, infinite draw, infinite mana... And there are ways to tutor the cards you need.

Of course there are more cards to tutor but to reach a higher consistency I found a way between both my strategies with a good (but not too high) amount of tutors and a pretty nice possibility to draw a lot of cards. Too many tutor cards would let Strategy 1. suffer.It's not about looking for the one way to win. Its about having a look for the first appearing way to win.

I know there are many good cards for a dragon deck which I didnt include. Thats because they wouldnt support the strategies of the deck. It has to be streamlined. That's also the reason why didnt chose some great dragons which arent listed. The best dragons could do here is being useful for the combo, protecting, drawing or ramping.

I think I know about most of the interesting cards for a dragon deck. But if you have any suggestions about reaching a higher efficiency with changing some cards or changing the proportions of creatures, ramp or whatever I will appreciate your expertise a lot!!!- - list text here

_I wanted to create a Deck that shows that you can have the Commander of your heart The Ur-Dragon without playing a deck that's just emotional, weak and slow. Stick with the Commander you love and find your tricks to make him much more efficient than your opponents expect him to be. You love the tribe of Dragons? Don't sacrifice them for the Combo decks everyone knows. Stick with it and find your way! Maybe we will create our nearly competitive The Ur-Dragon Deck here together. _
